CONVENTION UPDATE
Ta da! A Convention announcement!
We just signed the papers and we thank you for your prayers as we worked on moving, well, a whole lotta details in just a few days.
Drum roll #1: The Gaylord Palms in Kissimmee, FL (Orlando area) was able to welcome us (in the midst of many conventions needing to move).
Drum roll #2: We're able to keep the registration fees the same, so some of you might decide to come early or stay late, and enjoy the Orlando amenities with your friends (or family).
And thanks for all the great ideas of cities! You helped our future dreaming. 'Twould be fun!
And again, it will be great because of Who we'll be with: "Where(ver) two or three (thousand) are gathered in my name, there am I with them." (Mt. 18:20, our year's theme verse with my additions).

Convention Details:
The MOPS International Convention will be at the Gaylord Palms, Kissimmee, FL (Orlando area). Dates will be the same, August 5-7, 2010. Speakers and artists will be the same great lineup — Julie Barnhill, Margaret Feinberg, Donald Miller, Naomi Cramer Overton, Shelly Radic, Go Fish, Mandisa, The Katinas and Richie McDonald.
Convention registration will re-open on Monday, May 17.
The early bird registration deadline will be extended to June 7.
We are working with the Gaylord Opryland for an official letter we can provide to anyone who has already purchased airline tickets to use with airlines to avoid rebooking fees. This letter should assist you in rebooking airline tickets — it will be posted online at www.MOPS.org/convention.
We continue to pray for families and businesses affected by the flooding and we have sent MOPS materials to local MOPS leaders who are distributing supplies in the Nashville area.

Hello!
Now that we have wrapped up our 2008 MOPS Leadership for Life Summit, MOPS International has announced that next year's Summit is scheduled for Saturday, April 25, 2009. Now is the perfect time to discuss attending this wonderful training event with your whole Steering Team. Make sure you and everyone on your Steering Team marks their calendar.
Where is it going to be you ask? Great question. This year our Zone, Zone 22, had 3 Summit locations: Doylestown, Sayre, and Chambersburg. Right now, we have no sites for next year's Summit. What was that? You think you and your Steering Team may want to host next year's Summit. (So glad that you asked!) Well, in order to host the Summit you must have a CCN (Church Communication Network) subscription, have had one in the past and still have the equipment in working order, or be willing to purchase a subscription at a reduced rate (more details can be obtained by contacting Kay Kissinger (she's our Zone Event Coordinator (ZEC) at
kdkissinger@verizon.net). We are actively looking for sites in our zone. More information can be obtained by contacting Kay.
